Good call Lew,

problem solved.  When Windows updated my PC, it rolled my graphics drivers to a WHQL version, which stopped chief from working.  Chief Support had me DL the latest from Nvidia (the driver that prevented chief from running was only 20 days old) and it worked without a hitch.

thanks, 

Jason

Good morning,

I allowed windows 10 64 bit to do an update last night, and this morning Chief wont start up.  I tried to use the repair tool on the downloads page, and files were transferred, but still no action. I try to run as administrator, nothing.  It was working fine Friday.  Anyone else?  Any tips?

Win 10 Pro

version 1703

OS build 15063.296

Processor i7 2600K 3.7GHz

16.0 GB Ram

64 Bit 

Thanks Joe,  that did the trick

Chief 9.0 thru x8

core i7 intel, 32 gig DDR2, NVidia GTX 980, Samsung SSD. Win 10.

I see the interior ceiling finishes in the structure tab, but not the roofing materials.

I can't change my roofing material.  I'm pretty accustomed to switching materials and or editing materials.

In my roof planes specifications dialog, under materials, Roof Plane is listed without a material selected, and the only options I can edit are: Fascia and Soffit/Eve.

I've changed roofing materials  a lot in the past, can't get around this one.

If I change the ridge cap material, it only adds the ridge cap profile and changes that strip.

I am using a gambrel roof, so maybe that has something to do with it?
